Therapy-Grade Dogs
for Modern Families
Wisconsin's premier therapy-grade doodle breeder — serving families across Milwaukee, Chicago, Minneapolis, Madison, and nationwide.
A Wisconsin Family
Raising Exceptional Dogs
At Stokeshire Designer Doodles, we don't just breed puppies — we intentionally raise therapy-grade Australian Mountain Doodles, Golden Mountain Doodles, and Bernedoodles for families who refuse to gamble on health, lifestyle fit, or emotional connection.
Based in Wisconsin and serving families across the Midwest and nationwide, our program blends advanced genetic health testing, temperament-based pairing, and structured early development to create calm, confident, low-shedding companions designed for modern family life.
Every puppy is nurtured in our home and studio through the Stokeshire Method™ — a therapy-informed approach that combines early neurological stimulation, socialization, and optional Doodle School training — resulting in emotionally stable partners that integrate beautifully into real family homes.

Meet
The Stokes
We're James and the Stokes family — a Wisconsin family rooted in purpose, faith, and a deep love for exceptional dogs. What began as a passion for pairing the right dog with the right family has grown into one of North America's most respected therapy-grade doodle programs.
Every puppy that leaves Stokeshire carries the imprint of our home — raised alongside our children, shaped by structure, and sent into the world with confidence. This isn't a kennel. It's a calling.

A Story Worth Telling.
The families who bring our dogs home consistently send us the most beautiful photographs — and the most moving stories we've ever read.
These aren't pets in the traditional sense. They are companions shaped by careful breeding, intentional socialization, and the character of the families who raise them — in lake homes, city apartments, suburban estates, and everywhere life is lived fully.
